Connecting Z-CIMs as Tiers

The following diagram shows the final setup when connecting Z-Series Z4200U Z-CIMs as a tier:
Back of P2-UMT832
Important: Z-Series installation requires that each computer be assigned a channel name as it is
added to the Z-CIM chain. Computer channels are organized alphabetically by assigned name (or
the default name, the Z-CIM's serial number), rather than in the order of their placement within the
Z-CIM chain. We recommend that installers assign channel names before connecting all
computers to eliminate any difficulty in locating the respective channel for each computer.
Note: When following the installation and configuration instructions below, sort the Selection Menu by
Channel ID Number, not by Name. Display the menu by pressing [F2] and change the sorting method by
pressing [F12].
All Paragon II components must be powered ON prior to Z-CIM tier installation. All computers in the Z-
CIM chain and all Z4200U components must be powered OFF prior to installation.
Connect a Z-CIM as a Tier:
1. Connect a Category 5e UTP cable to the channel port on the Paragon II unit reserved for the Z-CIM
chain.
2. Connect the other end of this Category 5e UTP cable to the UTP OUT port on a Z-CIM, which will be
the first Z-CIM in the chain.
3. Connect a computer to the first Z-CIM.
For UKVMSPD Z-CIM:
a. Connect the 6-pin mini-DIN keyboard and mouse and HD15 video connectors on the UKVMSPD
Z-CIM to computer's keyboard, mouse, and video ports.
b. Place the Z-CIM Terminator in the Z-CIM's UTP IN port.
c. Power ON computer.
For UKVMSC Z-CIM with local port:
a. Connect DB25 male end of CCPnn cable to DB25 female port on back of a Z-CIM (UKVMSC).
b. Connect other end to computer's keyboard, video, and mouse ports.
